First I translated and memorised two verses of a latvian song (maybe memorised is a bit strong since I have to stop to think after every word). For the amusement of those Latvian speakers out there I will try to write it correctly.
Skaistā teva zeme
Ai, skaistā teva zeme
Tavu lielu jaukumiņu!
Smildziņa noziedēja
Sudrabiņa ziediņiem.
Kam šie kalni? Kam šīs lejas?
Kam lielie rudzu lauki?
Dievam kalni, Laimai lejas,
Arājam rudzu lauki.
And after that I went fishing!
Got one!!!!
And I'm not letting it get away (I think I alsmost strangled the fish, if that's even possible)
Then for some reason I decided I wanted to learn how to clean it. But it was worth the effort because it was so yummy!Then later that evening I taught my family how to eat tim tams (thanks Karen for sending them). This is my big bro giving it a go.
Love to all and if you wait around long enough one day I might tell you about Hungary :)
Hey Z,
ReplyDeleteI check from time to time and always figure that no news is good news because you are too busy to write. From the photos it looks like it is warming up a bit! You look well in the photos.
All well here. Jul is going OK with Year 12, so far. He has a gig next Monday night at the Gold Coast Jazz Club, he has to play by himself for half an hour. I hope he has prepared enough. He got his Ps in January and drives himself & Belle to school.
Lots of love
from Victoria et al.
It must be a gold fish!!
